Meaningful childcare for imaginative kids.
ArtSit helps families discover and request independent ArtSitters who bring art, imagination, and meaningful play into in-home childcare.
What Is ArtSit?
ArtSit is a creative childcare connection and coordination platform. Families can browse independent ArtSitters, choose their 1st, 2nd, and 3rd preferred providers, and submit a request for in-home creative care. ArtSit helps coordinate the request based on availability, location, schedule, and fit.
Not Just Babysitting
ArtSit is for families who want childcare that feels more thoughtful, creative, and engaging. ArtSitters offer age-appropriate creative activities like drawing, painting, crafts, storytelling, sensory play, music, movement, and open-ended imagination.

Trust Starts With Transparency
ArtSit is designed to help families make informed choices. ArtSitter profiles may include experience, creative focus, service area, availability, CPR/First Aid status, and TrustLine status when available. TrustLine and background check information are helpful safety tools, but they are not guarantees of future conduct. Families are encouraged to review profiles, ask questions, and verify information before confirming care.
